London Post COVID19: Smart Tech and Harnessing Data for the Public Good

The Greater London Authority and the London Office of Technology and Innovation are to discuss how they will respond to COVID-19 challenges by harnessing data and smart technology for the public good.

This session will be critical in outlining how local government can respond to systemic shifts and use data insights to develop London’s smart infrastructure, inform future policy and build better urban resilience.

As one of the leading smart cities in the world, London’s data sharing and smart city approach will set benchmarks and enable other governments worldwide to follow best practices.

Transport infrastructure is founded upon the communication of data. With the addition of satellite technology, this can become far more reliable and allow for increased innovation opportunities. Both infrastructure and vehicles alike will exchange large amounts of data allowing them to respond to changes instantaneously.

Monetizing Mobility Show Me the Money!

The Uber and Lyft IPOs have place the spotlight firmly on mobility business models. Despite the billions raised, the big questions still remain; where is the long term money in mobility? Can it ever be profitable?

Identifying the business models and platform/ data management challenges underpinning MaaS to find a win-win between the commercial imperatives of mobility service providers and the sustainability aims of the public sector.

Key Topics Include:

Enabling a Culture of Data Sharing: Understand how the public sector and transport authorities are creating new regulation for open data sharing

Integrated Platform Management: Harness the power of data to optimise routes, distribution and provide commuters with a seamless & personalised mobility experience

Creating Trusted Public/ Private Partnerships: Discuss how to work in harmony with the cities and enable integration between public transportation and shared mobility services

Build the Ecosystem to Deliver Seamless Intermodal Urban Mobility

Cities are striving to create a seamless intermodal transport experience for their citizens whilst mobility service providers are working to develop a sustainable business model for Mobility as a Service (MaaS). Yet, despite the hype, an ecosystem built on data needs to evolve before true MaaS can be achieved.

Unify services through a single platform to meet the multimodal demands of the on-demand consumer allowing shared mobility to compete with private vehicle experience

Harness the power of data to optimise routes, distribution and feed real time transportation data to commuters for a seamless transport experience

Work in harmony with the cities to enable integration between public transportation and shared mobility services. Create long lasting, win-win partnerships!

Smart Energy Powers the Urban Sustainability Revolution

For cities and enterprise, sustainability is no longer an option. It is mandatory. But what's exciting is that it’s an impact with a double bottom line; improved quality of life for citizens and employees plus real operational results.

From electric vehicles and smart grid to distributed energy resources (DER), this webinar will tackle the tech and business models revolutionizing urban energy and sustainability.

Electric Transportation: The Blessing or Curse for the Utilities? Identify whether cities are prepped to cope with a proliferation of EVs. Conversely, could EVs hold the key to the future urban grid?

The Urban Smart Grid: Understand how to use IoT sensors and A.I. monitor and fix the grid in real-time. Remove the human and say goodbye to downtime

Energy Resiliency: Urbanisation = a huge opportunity for the energy industry. But growth can lead to fragility. Build an energy development strategy that puts resiliency at its core

Distributed Energy Resources: Microgrids promise increased renewables, tariff arbitrage and even energy trading. Get inside the technology and potential ROI/ TCO models to assess the pros and cons of DER

Urban Mobility on Demand Public and Private Collaboration to Enhance Mobility

Getting Mobility Right: What Will It Take?

Transportation and mobility are generating incredible amounts of data. From cars to public transport to commuting patterns to roads and weather, this really is BIG data. However, the current fragmentation of the urban mobility ecosystem is impeding innovation and monetization of data.

Get to grips with how cities can use data to enhance transportation from identifying road safety hotspots and planning EV infrastructure to retiming traffic and reducing congestions

Understand the data sets gathered by the mobility stakeholders (i.e. automakers, mobility providers) and the value these assets have to cities

Discover different monetization models for mobility. Can one marketplace really rule them all?

How Cities are Connecting with Private Mobility Platform Providers to create Application Strategies and Business Models for Maas

With ambitious zero emissions goals to hit, European cities are looking to drive people out of private cars. For this to happen, there needs to be an alternative that is simply better than car ownership.

The central question remains, ‘How can cities and mobility service platforms work together to create mass adopted and sustainable mobility as a service?’

Creating An On-Demand Electrified Mobility Ecosystem: What Will It Take?

The electrification of private cars, commercial fleets and public transportation is inevitable. There’s a global movement for a cleaner, more sustainable world, and EV transport is a crucial part of that vision.

It will take a combination of regulation and incentive to move the world in that direction. While the savings in energy and maintenance already can make the switch to electric cost-effective, sweetening the deal with an incentive makes it an easier decision for fleet operators and transit agencies.

Mobility Data Marketplaces and Integrating Mobility into the Data Economy

Transportation and mobility are generating incredible amounts of data. From cars to public transport to commuting patterns to roads and weather, this really is BIG data.
